The owner in Polish is	English Possessive Pronoun	The owned object in Polish is
		singular		plural
		masculine or neuter	feminine	any gender
singular first person	my	moim	mojej	moich
singular second person	your (singular)	twoim	twojej	twoich

singular third person feminine	her, its	jej
plural first person	our	naszym	naszej	naszych
plural second person	your (plural)	waszym	waszej	waszych
plural third person	their	ich

Notice that the singular third person has more than one English translation. Why? Because we use his and her for objects too. In Polish language every noun has a gender and this gender doesn't match the English gender. For example książka(book) is feminine, so we will say her instead of its. Compare the English and Polish possessive pronouns in the sentences below:

Examples

Wybierając tę komórkę myślałem o jej zaletach.	When choosing this phone, I was thinking about its advantages.
Rozmawiałem z córką o jej ocenach.	I talked with my daughter about her grades.

Wybierając ten telewizor myślałem o jego zaletach.	When choosing this TV, I was thinking about its advantages.
Rozmawiałem z synem o jego ocenach.	I talked with my son about his grades.

Alternative forms

There are also alternative forms of my and your (singular) possessive pronouns. They are used rather in poetry than in everyday speech. You can create them by

removing
oj
, for example mojej becomes mej
replacing
oi ➜ y
, for example twoich becomes twych

The owner in Polish is	English Possessive Pronoun	The owned object in Polish is
